1. Direct Ground Cooling Systems for Office Buildings
Sammanfattning : The solving of crucial global energy challenges hinges on improving energy efficiency in building energy systems. Accomplishing energy-efficiency targets often entails incorporating sustainable energy sources into the energy supply system. LÄS MER
2. Direct-Ground Cooling Systems for Office Buildings: Design and Control Considerations
Sammanfattning : Direct-ground cooling systems are defined as systems in which the ground is used as the only source for cooling mainly in commercial buildings. These systems benefit from exchanging heat with the ground, of which its temperature is basically constant below a certain depth year around. LÄS MER
3. Spatial Variation in Near-Ground Radiation and Low Temperature - Interactions with Forest Vegetation
Sammanfattning : Low temperature has a large impact on the survival and distribution of plants. Interactive effects with high irradiance lead to cold-induced photoinhibition, which may impact on the establishment and growth of tree seedlings. LÄS MER
4. Seasonal snow storage for space and process cooling
Sammanfattning : The world’s cooling demand has increased considerably during the last decades due to increased population, industrialisation, comfort demands, electronic equipment usage and new building technologies. Conventional cooling is often produced by electrically driven devices. LÄS MER
5. Reduction of prime energy consumption by ground source heat pumps in a warmer world
Sammanfattning : Much of the energy used worldwide is supplied by fossil fuels (~85 %) while renewable energy sources supply approximately 6 %. A sustainable future urgently requires worldwide efforts to reduce primary energy consumption and increase use of renewable energy sources. LÄS MER
